Distance fallen = 1/2 ( V initial + V final ) *t
We know
a = -9.8 m/s2
t=120s
To find distance fallen, we need to find V final
Use the equation
V final = V initial + a*t
Substitute known values
V final = 0 + (-9.8)(120)
V final = -1176 m/s
Then plug known values to distance fallen equation
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( 0 + 1176 )(120)
= 1/2(1776)(120)
=106,560 m
This way plugging into distance equation is actually the long way. A faster way is to plug the values into
Distance fallen = V initial * t + 1/2(a*t)
We won't need to find V final using another equation.
But anyways, good luck!
Average speed=total distance travelled/time
Answer:
The definition of acceleration is: Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.
Explanation:
Answer:
Given:
Initial speed (u) = 10 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 2 m/s²
Time taken (t) = 3s
To Find:
Final speed (v) of the car
Explanation:
From equation of motion we have:
By substituting value of u, a & t in the equation we get:
Final speed (v) of the car = 16 m/s
